Hairspray - Without Love lyrics

rate me

SEAWEED

(climbing in Penny's window)

Psst Penny! What happened?!

PENNY (strapped into bed)

My mother's punishing me for going to jail without permission!

SEAWEED

Well, I'm here to save the fair maiden in her tower.

PENNY

Oh, Seaweed!

LINK (sneaking into jail)

Tracy, you look beautiful behind bars!

TRACY

It must be the low-watt instutionai lighting!

LINK

Oh Tracy, they can keep us from kissing,

but they can't stop us from singing!

LINK

Once i was a selfish fool

Who never understood

I never looked inside myself

Though on the outside, i looked good!

Then we met and you made me

The man i am today

Tracy, i'm in love with you

No matter what you weigh

'Cause...

LINK (& ENSEMBLE)

Without love

Life is like the seasons with

No summer

Without love

Life is rock 'n' roll without

A drummer

Tracy, i'll be yours forever

'Cause I never wanna be

Without love

Tracy, never set me free

No, i ain't lyin'

Never set me free, Tracy,

No, no, no!!

TRACY

Once i was a simple girl

Then stardom came to me

But i was still a nothing

Though a thousand fans may

Disagree

ENSEMBLE

Tracy!!

TRACY

Fame was just a prison

Signing autographs a bore

I didn't have a clue

'Til you came banging on my door

TRACY (& ENSEMBLE)

That without love

Life is like my dad without his bromo

Without love

Life is making out with perry como!

Darling, i'll be yours forever

'Cause i never wanna be

Without love

So darling, throw away the key

LINK & TRACY

I'm yours forever

TRACY

Throw away the key

LINK, TRACY& ENSEMBLE

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

SEAWEED

Living in the ghetto

Black is everywhere ya go

Who'd 've thought i'd love a girl

With skin as white as winter's snow

PENNY

In my ivory tower

Life was just a hostess snack

But now i've tasted chocolate

And i'm never going back

PENNY & SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE

'Cause without love

SEAWEED

Life is like a beat that you can't follow

PENNY & SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE

Without love

PENNY

Life is doris day at the apollo

PENNY & SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE

Darling, i'll be yours forever

'Cause i never wanna be

Without love

SEAWEED

So darling, never set me free

PENNY & SEAWEED

I'm yours forever

Never set me free

PENNY & SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE

No, no, no!

LINK

If you're locked up in this prison, trace

I don't know what i'll do

TRACY

Link, i've got to break out

So that i can get my hands on you

SEAWEED

And girl, if i can't touch you

Now i'm gonna lose control

PENNY

Seaweed, you're my black white knight

I've found my blue-eyed soul

SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE

Sweet freedom is our goal

LINK

Trace, i wanna kiss ya!

Tracy

Let me out of the next tole!

(Link & Seaweed break their girls out of their respective prisons

and continue singing... of course)

ALL

'Cause without love

SEAWEED

Life is like a prom that won't invite us

ALL

Without love

LINK

Life's getting my big break and laryngitis

ALL

Without love

PENNY

Life's a '45' when you can't buy it

ALL

Without love

TRACY

Life is like my mother on a diet

ALL

Like a week that's only mondays

Only ice cream never sundaes

Like a circle with no center

Like a door marked "do not enter!"

DARLING, I'LL BE YOURS FOREVER

'Cause I never wanna be...

Without love

PENNY & LINK

Yes now you've captured me

ENSEMBLE

Without love

SEAWEED & TRACY

I surrender happily

ENSEMBLE

Without love

PENNY

Oh seaweed

ALL

Never set me free

PENNY & SEAWEED

No, no, no

TRACY & LINK

No, i ain't lyin'

PENNY & SEAWEED

Never set me free

ALL

No, no, no

No, i dont wanna live without

PENNY

Love, love, love

LINK

Yeah, yeah, yeah

ALL

Darling, you had best believe me,

Never leave me without love!
